#2. Former AEW World Champion Jon Moxley mocks the WWE Thunderdome

Former AEW World Champion Jon Moxley isn't a big WWE fan anymore. Having spent years in the system, he suffered from a severe physical and mental burnout that ultimately caused him to call it quits.

Jon Moxley joined AEW at the Double Or Nothing pay-per-view in 2019 and eventually went on to become the second AEW World Champion in history. He seems to be in a much better place, and over two years into his AEW stint, Jon Moxley has reinvigorated his passion for professional wrestling.

Speaking to Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter in an interview, Jon Moxley said that nothing in WWE will change until Vince McMahon is gone. He also took direct shots at the WWE Thunderdome:

"I really don't want to get into bashing them (WWE), you know, but all the LED boards and s**t in their ThunderDome isn't going to fix their problems. We know what their problem is. I saw a picture of The ThunderDome and it had all the, it was like a Zoom call, with all the faces on the and it tripped me out because it immediately made think of...have you ever read the book, Fahrenheit 451?" Moxley said.

Fahrenheit 451 is a dystopian novel from the 1950s that predicted a version of the future, similar to what social media has become.
